Right, because monkeys cannot be granted copyright. If you use a typewriter along with Microsoft, the resulting copyright will be owned jointly.
This story isn't about a monkey claiming co-authorship, it's about Microsoft claiming co-authorship.

I don't understand your position.
Your previous post was agreeing that Microsoft wouldn't get copyright on copilot output, wasn't it? I said the bot doesn't get copyright and you said "neither do you".
Why are you now saying Microsoft would get copyright?
Copilot is a robo-monkey owned by Microsoft.
